Welcome to EGamersWorld.
Let's move on to the schedule of the first day of Swiss Stage LoL World Championship 2024. In one of the matches we will see a match between Hanwha Life Esports.
The best LCK team will play against the strongest PCS team. However, PCS is far away from LCK, but the format of the bo1 match may surprise us.
We are trying to figure out who will be stronger in the PSG Talon - Hanwha Life Esports match and go into the set 1-0, while the loser will continue to fight for the play-offs with a 0-1 basket.
Let's go.

We open our breakdown of the HLE vs PSG Talon match with an analysis of HLE's playing form. In this match they will play as favourites with odds to win at around 1.2.
HLE are consistently reaching the late stages of the regular split. This only started to work out in 2023. Before that, in the 2022 season, HLE were the worst team in the race, twice finishing in the top 10 in regular splits.
It was corrected by 2023, after the big Reshuffle. Two reigning world champions joined the HLE roster, which strengthened the club considerably.
- HLE roster: Doran, Peanut, Zeka, Viper, Delight.
With the addition of Zeka and Kingen to the HLE lineup, it was clearly more vigorous. So much so that they made it to the top 4 of LCK Spring 2023. The latest addition to HLE is Grizzly, a jungler who got promoted from the academic roster.
It seems to be working out pretty well. HLE finished in the top 3 in the regular season, which with teams like Dplus, T1 and other top teams is pretty good.
In the first play-offs match HLE warmed up against DRX. Nominally reigning world champions couldn't do anything against their visions and HLE easily closed the match with the score 3-0.
Then the situation was not so rosy: HLE ran into Gen.G and fell 0-3. The favour went to the bottom set of play-offs, but it did not save them for long.
Hanwha Life Esports faced KT Rolster in the first match of the last chance grid. The pressure was too hard and HLE was washed away: 0-3 and a play-offs exit, and at the same time not a pass to Worlds 2023.
They tried to make it to the Worlds in the regional finals, but again failed. LCK finished the final tournament of the season in the top 3, having failed to use either of the two attempts to qualify for the Worlds: they lost first to KT Rolster with a 1-3 score and then to Ledge or DPlus KIA with the same score.
Hanwha Life Esports finished the LCK Spring 2024 season in the top 3. The team once again fell one series short of reaching the international LAN tournament.
HLE advanced to the LCK Summer 2024 play-offs from the second place of the regular season, finishing 14-4. Went directly to the second stage of the playoffs. They debuted at the LCK Summer 2024 play-offs with a match against T1, where they beat the reigning world champions 3-0. Next, HLE lost to Gen.G, beat T1 again on class and got revenge on Gen.G in the grand finals to become LCK Summer 2024 champions.

We continue the analysis of PSG Talon vs HLE match with the analysis of PSG Talon form. In this match they will play as favourites with odds to win at around 5.1.
PSG Talon had a pretty easy time qualifying for Worlds 2023 under the Taiwanese quota. Roughly speaking, they simply had no competition in their region.
During the year, PSG Talon won the PCS home tournament twice. They won at PCS Spring 2023 and PCS Summer 2023.
- PSG Talon roster: Azhi, Junjin, Maple, Betty, Woody.
In addition to regional successes, PSG Talon has been consistently recognised at the international level. And they have been doing so since their appearance on the competition scene, i.e. 2020.
At the Worlds series championships the results are as follows: TOP-12 at the 2020 Worlds, TOP-11 at the 2021 Worlds. Skipped the Worlds last year, finishing in the Top 3 on the home stage for the first time. Still appeared at MSIs, where the best result was a top-3 at MSI 2021. Incidentally, they also travelled to MSI this year, but couldn't jump above the top 9.
Worlds 2023 PSG Talon started with a confident victory over Rainbow7. The Mexicans were able to last less than an hour on two maps.
They continued it with a win over LOUD. PSG Talon easily shut down the Brazilians with a score of 2-0, thus becoming the only team not to lose a single map at the Play-In.
In the match for the next round PSG Talon played against BDS and after leading 2-0, they lost 2-3, thus falling out of favour at Worlds 2023.
In the 2024 season, PSG Talon first finished top-2 in the PCS Spring Regular Season and then triumphed in the play-offs, shutting out HAWKS 3-0 in the grand finals.
At the 2024 PSG Talon Long Mid-Season Invitational, PSG Talon Long Sogpeg started off with a very unexpected loss against FlyQuest. Already in the bottom of the bracket, they beat Estral Esports 2-0. In the match for the Bracket Stage they defeated FlyQuest 2-0. In the first round of Bracket Stage PSG Talon met Bilibili Gaming and gave last year's top-2 MSI a decent fight: 2-3. But they failed to defeat G2 Esports, even on 1 map, and as a result - TOP-8.
Later was the performance at the home PCS Summer, where Talon won the regular season and also won the play-offs, thus becoming the best PCS team and making it to the Worlds 2024.
Worlds 2024 PSG Talon started at the Play-In stage, where they stumbled against MAD Lions in the top set, but then cameback through the bottom set.
Most Popular PSG Talon Champions
The most popular and successful champion for the top line remains Gragas (3 matches, 100% wins), and also Kennen (3 matches, 66% wins).

The last time the teams played each other was back in 2021.
Predicted result of PSG Talon vs HLE at World Championship 2024
I will be rooting for PSG Talon in this match, but my mind is on HLE. The championship in South Korea makes the team a force to be reckoned with.
Bottom line: HLE wins.
